Well Sung ‘Carmen’ Triumphs at Glimmerglass

Gale Martin, 5th August

Sultry and brassy, calculating and cruel, the character Carmen is, well, hard to like. By contrast, Bizet’s opéra comique of the same name playing in repertory at Glimmerglass Festival this summer is resoundingly popular, bringing audiences to standing ovations.The shining virtue of this Glimmerglass production is the music—especially the singing.
